“The renewal of these three series is evidence that we continue to hit our stride in delivering quality entertainment to a broad viewership,” says Paul Telegdy, NBC’s head of alternative and late-night programming. “All of the hard-working talented people on these shows — both behind and in front of the camera — should feel very proud of their achievements.”

“AGT” has been the top unscripted show on the broadcast networks so far this summer, averaging a 3.1 rating in adults 18-49 and 12.4 million viewers in the “most current” Nielsen ratings (a combination of Live +7 and same-day results).
